| contents | The geometry of 2D Minkowski spacetime $\mathbb{R}^{1,1}$ (or Minkowski plane) is similar but fundamentally different from the more familiar Euclidean plane geometry. This note gives an elementary discussion on some basic properties of a triangle on the Minkowski plane. In particular, we show that the theorem of Feuerbach also holds and a use of the incenter/excenters is pointed out. |
